'Showgirls' was a critical point in my life. I had my head handed to me. At 21 years old, I had to find my self-esteem again. It was a very hard time.

I'm a showgirl. After 20 years in show business, I've learned to roll with the punches.

When I was 49, I posed for Playboy - I was very flattered to be asked. I was quite honoured, really, considering that most of the models they feature are in their twenties.

The way 'Showgirls' was presented to me, it sounded like an interesting project, and it kind of just went off the rails as we were doing it.

I became an adult in an extreme way. I was recently sorting some old photographs and I found another.

I am young. I better show off what I have now.

I knew a lot of girls who just wanted to be famous, and if that's your goal, that's awesome; that just wasn't enough for me.

I want to show that I'm a real teenager, not some fantasized Hollywood kid.

I intended to be famous by the time I was 16 and rich by the time I was 20. Curiously, it didn't pan out!
